Why Forkline
Everything a new brand needs, minus the overheads
Starting a restaurant brand from scratch means months of menu work, design and marketplace wrangling. We've done that part already.
Tested menus & training
Every dish is built for speed on a standard commercial line, with step-by-step specs and on-site training for your team.
Marketplace-ready on day one
We set up listings, photography and menus across the major delivery apps so you go live with a polished storefront.
Ongoing growth support
Promotions, menu tweaks and performance reviews every month — we only do well when your orders do.
Supply sorted
Branded packaging and key ingredients arrive through preferred suppliers, so stock levels stay predictable.
Our story
Built by operators who've run the pass on a Friday night
Forkline started in a single takeaway kitchen that had more capacity than customers between rushes. Adding a second delivery brand filled the quiet hours — then a third filled the weekends.
We turned that playbook into a portfolio. Today we partner with independent kitchens across the UK, giving them the brands, systems and support to turn idle stations into steady revenue.

FAQs
Questions we hear a lot
What kind of kitchen do I need?
Any licensed commercial kitchen with some spare capacity — takeaways, restaurants, pubs and cafés all work. We'll match brands to the equipment you already have.
Do I need to hire extra staff?
Usually not. Menus are designed to slot into your existing line and run alongside your current orders. If volume grows enough to need more hands, that's a good problem to have.
How long does it take to go live?
Most partners are taking orders around five weeks after signing, covering menu training, packaging delivery and marketplace setup.
How does Forkline make money?
We take a share of the sales generated by the brands we provide. There's an onboarding fee to cover setup, which we'll walk through on our first call.
Can I run more than one brand?
Yes. Many partners start with one brand, prove it out, then add a second or third to fill different times of day.
Which delivery platforms do you support?
All the major UK marketplaces. We handle the listing setup and can also connect your own ordering channels.
